Defragment multiple drives simultaneously with Smart Defrag
by Brad Linder Sep 25th 2008 at 5:00PM
First, Smart Defrag can defragment several hard drives or partitions at once. In my tests, it did a complete scan of a 20GB partition and a 70GB partition in a matter of seconds. Smart Defrag can then either defragment the disks in question, or defragment and optimize the disks by arranging data for the best possible performance.
Smart Defrag also includes a handy scheduling utility which allows you to schedule daily, weekly, monthly, or one time disk defragmenting jobs. You can also have the application run when you first boot your system, when your computer is idle, or at regularly scheduled intervals (like every two weeks). If you're the sort of person who keeps putting off the task of defragmenting your hard drive, this feature could really come in handy.

With Halloween fast approaching, it's a great time to get in some practice defending your territory against zombies. In Graveyard Shift, you take aim at zombies and other creepy-crawlies, blasting them into splatters of cartoony green guts. It's a casual first-person shooter, and it's very easy to get the hang of - use the mouse to aim, click to fire. Graveyard Shift has at least 15 levels, and it might even have some secret stages I haven't unlocked yet.
They key to getting good at Graveyard Shift is learning to use ...

Hey is this better than the regular defrag of XP and/or Vista? I know I can do monthly defrag with Vista and there's a diagram visible on XP showing if it is defragged HDD or not.

I'm very disappointed that DownloadSquad recommend software from a blatant SPYWARE distributor.
just go to smart defrag's website, click on "Why Choose It" and scroll down a bit. you'll see a huge list of blatant spam links, some of those include
http://www.iobit.com/disneychannel-com.html and http://www.iobit.com/blog/free-porn-movies-videos-clips.html
once you click on those links, you'll see that all the images are links to google for "auto insurance" referral url.
download link will give you some self-extracting .exe rar file which automatically extracts and runs the file inside with /verysilent install option...
BE VERY CAREFUL ABOUT SOFTWARE FROM THIS WEBSITE!

While I'll agree that the webpage mentioned above has links at the bottom, I don't see how this classifies the software as "spyware". In fact, many sites list this as NOT containing spyware at all.
So, although the webpage may have "bad" links in there, the software is not necessarily "SPYWARE" because of it. Can you tell us if you have installed it and THEN noticed spyware because of it?

I don't see any weird/malicious links on Smart Defrag's page either [ http://www.iobit.com/iobitsmartdefrag.html ].

I saw the links when the page loaded, then they were hidden by some scripts. They are there! View the source of the page and you will see them.
AND of course there is a link to spyware remover on the bottom.

I use Puran Defrag (http://www.puransoftware.com). It can defrag at boot or in the background at an interval of your choosing.

I like Power Defragmenter (a GUI frontend for contig.exe) because it's from SysInternals. I've never had a problem with it, and it seems both faster and more effective than the built-in defragmenter.
